@VirMach
Titchy VPS provisioned quickly.
Yay! VNC within the Client Area is working now too. Well done allround, I'd say.
Now they're trolling us:
$12/yr - BUFFALO, NY / 2 vCPU / 640M RAM / 50G SSD / 250G BW / 1 IPs
Big SSD, fair amount of vCPUs, no good BW limit and almost no RAM
Fuck!
I clicked looking glass.
If there's more RAM(768M or 1G), more BW I would probably buy it. Big disk with tiny BW isn't useful.
$12/yr - BUFFALO, NY / 1 vCPU / 768M RAM / 50G SSD / 1000G BW / 1 IPs
Any new jersy deal with more 4gb?
"Install Later -- Please wait 1-2 hours"
Does it mean that you will be able to choose OS when it is live? Or need to mention the desired OS version to be installed via ticket?
Thanks.
You can just re-install it to your desired OS when you got the VPS Control Panel Info ( SolusVM )
Thanks
guess it would take um...... quite a while 
I am an existing customer, my order got flagged for fraud. There is always a first time.
Oh well, money saved!!

twins?
It was difficult to organize it all with ColoCrossing and it would not have been possible with all subnets, which would cluster it further.
In addition, this would greatly increase abuse.
We're unsure about Windows licensing at the time so we're trying to avoid that as much as possible.
Those might have to wait until we roll out our own Ryzen servers.
I lost most my remaining hairs over that.

But seriously if anyone on that specific plan happens to run out of bandwidth and they're not sending out attacks just DM me with with a link to this exact comment and your service IP and I'll double the bandwidth.
I feel like people usually overestimate how much bandwidth they require, it's perhaps the most oversold thing ever. We just like to keep it low so everyone can theoretically use all of it and have a decent network. It's hard enough as it is with the blend ColoCrossing provides us. Maybe we'll go crazy with it once we have unmetered with a decent provider on our colocation offers.
Oh right... the RAM, good luck with that part though.
It means if we installed all these as they came in, SolusVM would crash because they still haven't built in any meaningful stagger feature over the last 8 years. I'm sure Solus.IO has it though at 10x the price.
If it's rejected, check for an auto generated ticket on our end. If you have one of those, you're pretty much guaranteed to get it if you make a meaningful reply.
If you didn't get an invoice generated, means you definitely didn't get it.
Depends. Probably if you also don't have the SolusVM login.
Definitely don't make a ticket for vserverid issues, and if you did please do close it if we do fix it. We will be fixing all of these independent from tickets. Please spread this message, it will help us a lot. We have hundreds and hundreds of tickets regarding these specials and the majority of them are regarding vserverid or being in a pending state when we're aware. This makes it more difficult to help those who have actual issues like payments not registering and such.
From the original post, there's still hope for wasting your money:
We specifically coded a system to allow anti-fraud not to get in the way, as in if it moves on to the next deal, your deal is preserved for you and can be auto-generated.
Thanks for the information. Would it be helpful if the customer chips in a ticket mentioning the desired OS to be installed before the service provision so it can potentially save efforts for both parties?
What kind of CPUs are there with these offers?
I must say, im with virmach for more than 2 years now and I really have to compliment them on stability. Aside from a planned downtime due to switch from openvz to kvm I didn't notice any downtime.
No, do not open any tickets about install OS - you will be able to do it later from SolusVM to w/e thing you want. Close all the tickets about installing OS.
I have not created one. Just asking out of curiosity.
Varies, but most of them will be E5-2660v2. Most of the Buffalo ones will be E5-2670v2 or E5-2690v2 unless they have low disk included.
To be fair, we do have downtimes and some do take long to resolve if it's out of our hands. This should improve as we move toward colocation.
As JabJab mentioned, OS installs as well as many other things are self-serve. That's how we can make these pricepoints work, especially for these deals.
Anyone know do VirMach provide off-site backup to flash sells? I will have my own backup, just curious.
I paid an invoice. Now the service status is canceled & invoice status is paid. Should I just wait? Or submit a ticket?
Now I am regretting didn't get that one.
For 4$ per year, off-site backup?
Umm...will it come back or should I open a ticket?
We do disaster recovery backups only, per week. They do fail sometimes. They're not perfect. And they're not free to restore until we automate it some.
Please note, flash deals/specials usually do not always come with this option depending on availability, although we're trying to work them in as we recently overhauled backups. Later on as we move toward our own hardware, we have an idea of doing multiple layers of backups, NVMe --> SATA SSD for quicker/more often backups and perhaps multiple slots per VM and then a weekly SATA SSD --> HDD on another server for disaster recovery.
We've had one single situation where 60~ VMs lost their data because of a complete mess of a series of events including the datacenter making mistakes every step of the way and just overall being extremely unlucky and we would really like to avoid that as it's not fun for anyone involved.
Although I will absolutely stress this, it's good you will have your own backups as you mentioned, as should everyone else.
Try Management button on left nav. then VPS Control Panel button. Sometimes this works.
I have the same problems as you, which makes me uncertain whether I will enjoy the service I deserve.
It will come back when they fix it.
Wait a few hours, then make a ticket if the system doesn't correct itself. When making a ticket, include the invoice ID, the service name or ID, and the transaction ID if you have it for smoothest resolution.
This will auto-fix.
